3 Features Three-phase overcurrent protection with two directional stages and one non-directional highset stage Special memory circuit for maintaining the stability and reliability of directional measurement at close three-phase faults Two-stage directional earth-fault protection or alternatively three stage-residual voltage protection Five external control inputs enabling, for example, switching between main and second settings Eight freely configurable output relays and output relay for internal relay fault Four heavy-duty output relays for circuit-breaker tripping Recording of measured data to be used for analyzing network condition Transfer of data over serial communication bus Continuous self-supervision and internal fault diagnosis Reading and writing of setting values via display and front panel push-buttons, a PC with setting software or from higher systems levels over serial bus Application The feeder protection relay SPAS 8 C is designed to be used in applications requiring directional phase overcurrent, directional shortcircuit and directional earth-fault protection. Typically, the relay is used for the overcurrent and earth-fault protection of infeeders and busbars in distribution substations provided with multiple infeeders supplied from the same high-voltage busbar system via power transformers. The relays are also applied for the selective shortcircuit and earth-fault protection of parallel feeders between substations and for feeder protection in ring-type and meshed distribution networks. Further, the directional relay is used for the protection of radial feeders with a small backfeed of energy from a generator in the consumerend of the feeder.

4 Description of operation The feeder protection relay SPAS 8 C is a secondary relay system to be connected to the current and voltage transformers of the network section to be protected. The feeder protection relay includes three protection relay modules: two directional overcurrent relay modules SPCS D and SPCS D, and one directional earth-fault relay module type SPCS D6. Directional overcurrent relay modules SPCS D and SPCS D The directional overcurrent modules SPCS D and SPCS D are intended to be used for single-phase or two-phase directional overcurrent protection. When the two directional overcurrent modules are used together threephase directional overcurrent protection is achieved. Each module includes three overcurrent stages: two directional stages I>, I>> and one nondirectional stage I>>>. An overcurrent stage starts, as soon as the current on one of the phases exceeds the setting value of the stage and, if directional operation is selected the directional criteria must be fulfilled. Should the stage still be started when the operate time selected for the stage elapses, it trips the circuit breaker by delivering the trip signal configured. The low-set stages I> may have a definite time or an inverse time characteristic, whereas the highset stages operate according to the definite time characteristic only. The operation of the stages can be totally blocked by means of the configuration switches. The directional control of the relay modules is based on measuring the phase angle between the phase current and the opposite phase-to-phase voltage, say, L and U. To secure a reliable relay operation at close three-phase faults characterized by an exremely low phase-to-phase voltage, a memory function is implemented. At sudden loss of voltage in a fault situation this memory function gives the directional stage an additional.5 s time to operate after a total loss of voltage (=voltage level below 7%). Further, if the circuit breaker is closed against a fault, which means that the voltage does not rise to such a level that the direction of the current can be determined, the high-set stage I>> will operate non-directionally. Directional earthfault relay module SPCS D6 The directional earth-fault relay module SPCS D6 has two protection stages: a low-set stage I 0 > and a high-set stage I 0 >. The start value of the deblocking voltage U 0b > is the same for both I 0 > and I 0 >. The protection is based on measuring the neutral current I 0, the residual voltage U 0 and the phase angle between these. An earth-fault stage starts, if the neutral current and the residual voltage exceed the set values and the phase angle is within the specified operating sector ϕ b ± ϕ. When these conditions remain fulfilled during the set operate time, the stage provides a trip signal. The earth-fault relay module SPCS D6 can also be configured to operate as a three-stage residual voltage relay by replacing the two neutral current stages by two voltage stages. The three residual voltage stages measure the same voltage, but they can be given separate start values and operate times. Circuit-breaker failure protection The circuit-breaker failure protection integrated into the relay modules SPCS D, SPCS D and SPCS D6 enables a secured circuit breaker trip system. The breaker fail function is linked to the output relay TS, which means that if the local circuit breaker fails to trip, the trip signal is rerouted directly to the upstream circuit breaker. Note! When the relay SPAS 8 C is wired according to a connection diagram of this user guide, the operation direction "forward" is the direction of the normal load current. If the relay is to trip when the current starts flowing in the opposite direction to the normal load current, the operation direction "reverse" shall be selected by means of the SGF switches.

Measured values, settings and start and trip data are indicated on the display of the relay modules. Starting and tripping are indicated by the red operation code to the left of the display. The operation codes are explained in the manuals of the separate protection relay modules and on the system panel of the feeder protection relay. The start indications can be programmed to remain on even though the stage resets. Normally, the numbers indicating start are automatically reset, whereas the trip codes have to be reset by pressing the RESET push-button. The TRIP indicator at the bottom part of the front panel can be set to indicate starting and tripping. The BS, BS and RRES signals can be configured to reset the trip indicators automatically. An unreset operation indicator does not affect the operation of the relay module.. Measured values and settings presented on the display are identified by yellow LEDs on the front panel.. A permanent fault detected by the self-supervision system is indicated by the IRF indicator of the concerned relay module. The fault code appearing on the display when a fault occurs should be recorded to facilitate maintenance and repair. The operation indicators are described in detail in the manuals of the individual relay modules. I/O module The I/O module of the feeder protection relay SPAS 8 C is fitted in the rear part of the relay, in the same direction as the mother PC board. The module can be withdrawn after undoing the fixing screws and disconnecting the protective earth conductor of the cover and the flat cable connected to the mother PC board. The I/O module incorporates the output relays (8 pcs + IRF), the control circuits of the relays, the electronic circuits for the five external control inputs and the D connector required for serial communications. The input and output signals of the I/O module are linked to the mother board over a flat cable. The output signals SS...SS, TS...TS and TS control an output relay with the same designation. The operation of the stages are not fixed to a particular output relay, but can be programmed to the desired output relays. It should, however, be noted that the output relays TS, TS, TS and TS can be used for circuit breaker control. The configuration of the switchgroups is described in detail in the relay module manuals. The operation of the external control inputs is determined by the setting of the configuration switchgroups of the relay modules. The control inputs can be used for blocking one or several protection stages, for resetting latched output relays, selecting second settings, etc. 9

10 Power supply module The power supply module forms the voltages required for the relay modules and the auxiliary relay module. The power supply module is located behind the system panel of the protection relay and can be withdrawn after removal of the system panel. The power supply module is available in two versions as follows: SPGU 0A: - rated voltage U n = 0/0/0/0 V ac U n = 0/5/0 V dc - operative range U = V ac/dc SPGU 8B - rated voltage U n = /8/60 V dc - operative range U = V dc The voltage range of the power supply module fitted into the relay is marked on the system panel of the relay. The power supply module is transformer-connected, i.e. the primary side and the secondary circuits are galvanically isolated. The primary side is protected by a fuse, F, located on the PC board of the module. The fuse used in SPGU 0A is A (slow) and that one used in SPGU 8B is A (slow). The green LED U aux on the front panel is lit when the power supply module is in operation. The supervision of the voltages supplying the electronic circuits is integrated into the relay modules. A self-supervision alarm is received, if a secondary voltage deviates from its rated value by more than 5%.

Feeder protection relay SPAS 8 C used for protecting an infeeder cubicle

14 Parallel feeders The block diagram on page shows the relay SPAA 8 C sited at the infeeder of a substation. This connection can be be used for protecting parallel feeders as shown in the Fig 6. When parallel feeders are used, it is necessary to apply directional relays at the receiving end, while non-directional relays are sufficient at the feeding end. Selectivity is then achieved by setting the directional relays and their directional elements to look into the protected line, and giving them time and current settings lower than those of the non-directional relays in the feeding end. Since the relay SPAS 8 C includes three overcurrent stages and a versatile earth-fault module, one relay can be used for the overcurrent and earth-fault protection of the busbar system and for the protection of the parallel feeders. A possible DC component does not have to be considered in the current setting, because due to the peak-to-peak measurement method used, asymmetry does not affect the sensitivity of the start operations. SPAS 8 C SPAS 8 C Fig. 6. Directional relays protecting parallell feeders Directional overcurrent relay modules SPCS D and SPCS D The directional low-set stages I> are set to look into the protected line. This means that the low set-stages I> are set to operate in reverse direction by means of SGF switches. When definite time function is used, the operate times of the directional low-set stages I> should be at least 50 ms shorter than those of the non-directional stages of the relays in the feeding end. The current settings of the directional stages looking in reverse direction is normally 50% of the normal full load of the protected circuit. The directional high-set stages I>> are used for the short-circuit protection of the busbar system and, if required, the non-directional high-set stage can be used as backup protection for the outgoing feeders and the busbar system. Definite time operation has been used in Example, but inverse time characteristic can be selected for the stage I> as well. Directional or nondirectional earth-fault relay module SPCS D6 In the network illustrated in this example the relay module SPCS D6 is used for the earthfault protection of the busbar system and as backup earth-fault protection of the outgoing feeders. An earth-fault somewhere in a galvanically connected power system causes residual voltage. The residual overvoltage protection of the module SPCS D6 measures the residual voltage from the open delta winding of the voltage transformers. The low-set stage U 0b > of the module indicates beginning earth-faults. Normally the residual voltage in a healthy isolated network is very small, even less than % of the maximum residual voltage value. Thus the low-set residual voltage stage can be given a low setting value. The start signal of the low-set stage U 0b > can be used for enabling the non-directional earthfault current measuring relays of the feeders. To prevent unnecessary operation of the earth-fault relays during a short circuit or when a motor is started, the tripping of the non-directional earthfault relays of the outgoing feeders are normally blocked. If the outgoing feeders are provided with directional earth-fault relays, no enable signal is required. The trip signal of the U 0b > stage is used as alarm signal for high resistivity earth faults (earth faults not detected by any other protection unit). The residual voltage stages U 0 > and U 0 > are used to protect the busbar system and serve as non-selective back-up protection for the feeder earth-fault protection. The stage U 0 > can be used to open the bus section breaker or to disconnect the feeder(s) most prone to faults. Should a fault still persist after tripping of this stage, the second stage U 0 > opens the infeeder circuit breaker finally.

19 Directional overcurrent relay module SPCS D and SPCS D The overcurrent relay modules SPCJ D and SPCS D include three overcurrent stages. By using all three stages and giving each overcurrent stage its own operate value and operate time good selectivity with short operate times can be obtained. The operation of the short-circuit protection in this example is based on blockings between the protection levels. This means that when starting, the I>> stage of the overcurrent relay module of the feeder provides a blocking signal to the I>> stage of the overcurrent relay module of the infeeder. When no blocking signal is received, the infeeder overcurrent relay module perceives the fault as being within its own protection zone and trips the circuit breaker. Thus it is possible to use a minimum operate time of 0 ms at busbar system faults. The low-set stage I> is used as a directional stage operating in "forward" direction. Definite time operation has been used in this example, but inverse time characteristic can also be selected for this stage. The current setting of the stage I> must extend to the setting of the following protection stage. The high-set stage I>> is also used as a directional stage that operates in the same direction as the low-set stage. The current setting of this stage has been selected so that the stage operates at short circuits occurring close to the substation. Further, the start of the stage I>> is used to block the infeeder protection if the fault is located on the outgoing feeder. The non-directional high-set stage I>>> is not used in this example. When long operate times are used for the directional stages, the second high-set stage should however be used as backup protection. The stages I> and I>> can determine the direction of the current for about.5 s after a total collapse of the voltage. If a trip signal is not delivered within.5 s after a voltage collapse, the trip must be performed nondirectionally by the second high-set stage I>>>. The directional element of each phase current, determines the direction of the current by measuring the phase difference between the current and the opposite phase-to-phase voltage. Since, in this case, the relay is used to protect a feeder with the zero-sequence source behind the relaying point, the base angle -0 should be, as shown in Fig. 9 below, selected. No operation U -80 U I L U Fig. 9. Directional element of phase L ϕ Forward direction ϕ b = ϕ b U Directional or nondirectional earth-fault relay module SPCS D6 In the resonant earthed network illustrated in this example the relay module SPCS D6 is used for the directional earth-fault protection of the feeders. Directional earth fault relays should also be used at frequent network changes or when high sensitivity is to be achieved. A directional earthfault relay allows earth faults with fault resistances of several thousand ohms to be detected in overhead lines. Changes in the extension of the network due to varying the network configuration do not cause inselectivity, because the direction of the earth fault current of a faulty feeder is opposite to that of a healthy feeder. The basic angle of the relay module SPCS D6 can be set at 0, -0, -60 or -90. When the network to be protected is resonant earthed or earthed via a resistor as in this example, the basic angle should be set at 0. When an isolated neutral system is protected the basic angle is set at -90. In addition it is possible to use an external control signal BS or BS for selecting the basic angle (0 /-90 ) to be automatically determined by the earthing situation of the network. When the control voltage is connected, the basic angle ϕ b = -90. The start value of the low-set stage of the earthfault relay module should be set low enough to fulfil the sensitivity requirements of the safety regulations. The requirements regarding operate times are mainly fulfilled by the operation of the high-set stage I 0 >. 9

22 Testing The relay should be subjected to regular tests in accordance with national regulations and instructions. The manufacturer recommends an interval of five years between the tests. The test should be carried out as a primary test, which includes the whole protection arrangement from the instrument transformers to the circuit breakers. The test can also be carried out as a secondary injection test. Then the relay has to be disconnected during the test procedure. However, it is recommended to check the condition of the signal and trip circuits as well. Note! Make sure that the secondary circuits of the current transformers under no circumstances open or are open, when the relay is disconnected and during the test procedure. The test is recommended to be carried out using the normal setting values of the relay and the energizing inputs used. When required, the test can be extended to include more setting values. As the settings of the relay modules vary in different applications, these instructions present the general features of the test procedure. Ordinary current and voltage supply units and instruments for measuring current, voltage and time can be used for the tests. During the test procedure the relay records currents, voltages and relay operations. If the recorded data are used for the collection of information for longer time periods (for example, start counters), these registers should be read before the test procedure is started. After the test the registers are reset. The relay settings may have to be changed during testing. To make sure that the original settings are restored when the test has been completed, a PC program is recommended to be used to read the relay settings before starting the test. Testing of overcurrent relay modules SPCS D and SPCS D General Start value The protection stages used (I>, I>>, I>>>) are tested as follows: - start value (the high-set stages for all three phases) The directional stages have to be tested with voltage and current fed to the relay simultaneously. To enable relay operation, the phase angle between the current and voltage has to be within the operation sector selected for the relay. Start the test by applying voltage to the relay and then gradually raise the current, starting from zero, until the relay starts. Record the current value required for starting. The value should be within the permitted tolerances. The directional operation can be tested by connecting current and voltage to the relay (the - start time - trip time - trip indication, output relay operation and signalling - circuit-breaker failure protection (CBFP) current should be above the setting value) and changing the phase angle until the relay starts and resets. To test resetting, when required, raise the current until the relay starts and then reduce it until the relay resets. When multi-stage protection relays are tested it is recommended to start the test from the highest stage and then proceed to the lower stages. The advantage of this method is that the original settings of the stages really are restored. Start and trip times Switch a current that is...5 times the setting value of the protection stage to the relay. Measure the operate time, i.e. the time from the closing of the switch until the relay operates. The operate time should be within the permitted tolerances, except when the injected current is below times the setting value. In such a case the protective algorithm adds about 0 ms to the operate times. When inverse times are measured the measurement can be made with different supply currents, for example, times and 0 times the setting value, if required. The resetting time is measured from opening of the current switch until resetting of the relay.

23 Testing of directional earthfault relay module SPCS D6 General Start value Testing of the protection stages in use (U 0b >, U 0 >/I 0 > and U 0 >/I 0 >) includes: - start value(s) - start time Measure the start value of the U 0b > stage by gradually raising the voltage, starting from zero, until the relay starts. Record the voltage value required for starting. The value should be within the permitted tolerances. Test the stages U 0 >/I 0 > and U 0 >/I 0 > in the same way as the U 0b > stage, if they are configured to operate as U 0 stages. Otherwise current and voltage should be fed to the relay simultaneously. Start by setting the voltage above the setting value and raise the current until the relay starts. Record the value of the start current. Then set the current above the setting value and raise the voltage, until the relay starts. Record the value of the start voltage. - trip time - trip indication, output relay operation and signalling - circuit-breaker failure protection (CBFP) The operation of the U 0 >/I 0 > stage and the U 0 >/I 0 > stage can be directional or non-directional. If directional operation has been selected for the stage, the phase angle between the current and voltage to be applied to the relay has to be equal to the basic angle selected for the relay, to enable relay operation. The directional operation can be tested by setting the current and voltage above their setting values and changing the phase angle, until the relay starts and resets. To measure the resetting values, the current should be set above the setting value. Then reduce the current, until the relay resets. Start and trip times Switch a voltage and/or a current about...5 times the setting value of the protection stage to the relay. Measure the operate time, i.e. the time from closing the switch until the relay operates. The operate times should be within the permitted tolerances, except when the injected current is below times the setting value. In such a case the protective algorithm adds about 0 ms to the operate times. The resetting time is the time from the opening of the current switch until the relay resets.

24 Maintenance and repairs When the feeder protection relay is used under the conditions specified in "Technical data", it requires practically no maintenance. The feeder protection includes no parts or components that are sensitive to physical or electrical wear under normal operating conditions. Should the temperature and humidity on the operating site differ from the values specified, or the atmosphere contain chemically active gases or dust, the relay should be visually inspected in association with the secondary testing of the relay. This visual inspection should focus on: - Signs of mechanical damage to relay case and terminals - Collection of dust inside the relay case; remove with compressed air - Signs of corrosion on terminals, case or inside the relay If the relay malfunctions or the operating values differ from those specified, the relay should be overhauled. Minor measures can be taken by the customer but any major repair involving the electronics has to be carried out by the manufacturer. Please contact the manufacturer or his nearest representative for further information about checking, overhaul and recalibration of the relay. The protection relay contains circuits sensitive to electrostatic discharge. If you have to withdraw a relay module, ensure that you are at the same potential as the module, for instance, by touching the case. Note! Protective relays are measuring instruments and should be handled with care and protected against damp and mechanical stress, especially during transport.

29 Description of function General The directional overcurrent relay modules SPCS D and SPCS D are designed for twophase directional operation. Each module contain two directional overcurrent stages and one non-directional high-set stage. The directional overcurrent modules SPCS D and SPCS D are identical except for the phase currents and phase-to-phase voltages measured by the modules. Module current and voltage current and voltage SPCS D I L and U I L and U SPCS D I L and U I L and U When a stage exceeds the current setting and if directional operation has been selected the directional criteria should be fulfilled, a start signal is provided and, simultaneously, the digital display on the front panel indicates start. If the overcurrent situation lasts long enough to exceed the set operate time, the stage that started provides a trip signal. At the same time the red operation indicator is lit. The operation of the overcurrent stages can be blocked by a blocking signal BS, BS or RRES linked to the module. The blocking configuration is set by means of switchgroups SGB, SGB and SGB. Directional low-set stage I> The operation of the low-set stage I> is based on definite time or inverse time characteristic. The mode of operation is programmed with the SGF switch. At definite time mode of operation the operating time t> is set in seconds. At inverse time mode of operation (I.D.M.T.) four internationally standardized and two special type time/current characteristics are available. The programming switch SGF is also used for selecting the desired operation characteristic. An operation stage starts, if the current on one of the phases exceeds the setting value and the phase angle between the current and base angle falls within the operation sector ± 80. The inverse time function of stage I> is inhibited, when the second high-set stage I>>> starts. In this case the operate time is determined by the operate time t>>> of stage I>>>. Directional high-set stage I>> The operation of the high-set stage I>> is based on definite time characteristic and can be either directional or non-directional. When directional operation is selected, the start and operate times are slightly dependent on how the voltage is measured. For more information; see section "Technical data". The stage can also be set out of operation by means of switch SGF/ 5. When the high-set stage is out of operation, the set value in the display shows three dashes "- - -", indicating that the operating value is infinite. If the circuit breaker is closed against a fault, for example, if the system earthing has not been removed after maintenance, the directional high-set stage I>> will operate non-directionally. For example, in a start situation, if both phaseto-phase voltages are below 7% and one of the phase currents exceeds the set value of the highset stage I>>, the stage will trip non-directionally after the set operate time. The setting value of the high-set stage I>> may be subject to automatic doubling when the protected object is connected to the network, i.e. in a start situation. Thus the setting value of the I>> stage may be below the connection inrush current. The automatic doubling function is selected with switch SGF/5. The start situation is a situation where the phase currents rise from a value below 0. x I> to a value above.5 x I> in less than 60 ms. The start situation ends when the currents fall below.5 x I>.
